Get the Authentic Mexican Tacos...you'll thank me.....
New location has more room than the previous

Any other day I would give stars, but this visit was quite disappointing. Ordered takeout for lunch, the 5 for $7 for Taco Tuesday. Upon checking my order I realized there was no salsa verde in the box, when I asked the bartender about it he informed me that he’d have to charge me about $1.50 for it. I asked he said since last week. Well a friend of mine ended up ordering the same thing in the evening, lo and behold in her box she had salsa verde in her order, so it’s giving which is it. The lack of consistency and fact to try to charge for salsa verde with tacos is nuts to me.

Try the either the Popey or chorizocheese sauces - delicious 😋 Steak fajitas we also good. Their refried beans are delicious.
Wouldn't recommend the sopaipilla it was flat with whipped cream.

It’s not 1995 anymore get call waiting. 50% of the time I call to order the phone is off the hook/ busy signal. After multiple attempts I just go order from somewhere else. I can only imagine the business they loose because of only have one phone line without call waiting.

Hey! Go see Jose at the bar or order from your table and have him make a Spicy Jalapeño Margarita!
Toes in the sand

Truthfully the food is great and I’ve been a customer for many years, HOWEVER; now they have started charging a service fee even when paying cash. When asked about it they could only say “it was managements decision”. As someone who always tips and knows people in the card processing business this is unacceptable. This is the business trying to make more money and they don’t care about their customers or employees. Not to mention that they now have changed their tipping options when you do pay with a card to be 20,25,30%. The standard is 10-20% depending on the service and the food. I am a teacher and don’t make a ton of money but I’ll pay what is deserved until the business is becoming more greedy then I won’t return.
